YOUNGSTERS at Astwood Bank First School enjoyed a week of activities with a circus theme.

Clowns gave demonstrations and circus skills performers worked with children at the Church Road school last week.

Teachers ran workshops, including mask making, and there were also a number of large projects undertaken such as murals and window displays.

Astwood Bank First School pupils Elliot James, seven, Adam Haslam, six and Andrea Griffiths, six, get into the circus spirit.
